At 58 years old, Rodrigo Paz put an end to almost two decades of governments of the Movement for Socialism (MAS).

After the victory of the centrist was officially confirmed in the presidential runoff of the neighboring country, where he was consecrated with 54.5% of the vote, the president greeted him on social media and celebrated the results of the elections. "Congratulations to the elected president of Bolivia, Rodrigo Paz Pereira, for his victory in the elections this Sunday and to all the Bolivian people for their commitment to democracy and the desire for renewal," he stated through his X account. In the same vein, the head of state anticipated that Bolivia "will once again enter the free world, with a course oriented towards economic opening, the fight against corruption and insecurity, and the end of the era of state waste," which he called "21st-century socialism." "It is a historic day for Bolivia, leaving behind 20 years of the failed model of 21st-century socialism that has done so much harm to our region," he affirmed, and concluded with his usual style: "VIVA LA LIBERTAD CARAJO…!!"
